2. Description of the Prior Art
The use of eyeshields is known in the prior art. More specifically, eyeshields heretofore devised and utilized are known to consist basically of familiar, expected and obvious structural configurations, notwithstanding the myriad of designs encompassed by the crowded prior art which have been developed for the fulfillment of countless objectives and requirements.
Known prior art eyeshields include U. S. Pat. No. Des. 361,868 to Raugh; U.S. Pat. No. 2,519,959 to Fisher; U.S. Pat. No. 4,524,465 to Huber; U.S. Pat. No. 3,984,875 to Farquharson; U.S. Pat. No. 4,001,894 to Roques-Rogery; and U.S. Pat. No. 3,039,108 to Lohrenz.
While these devices fulfill their respective, particular objectives and requirements, the aforementioned patents do not disclose a new protective helmet with attachable visor. The inventive device includes a protective visor adapted for removable securement to a front peripheral edge of a protective helmet. The protective visor has a plurality of hook and loop strips disposed on an interior surface of an upper edge thereof. The hook and loop strips couple with corresponding hook and loop strips disposed on the protective helmet.
In these respects, the protective helmet with attachable visor according to the present invention substantially departs from the conventional concepts and designs of the prior art, and in so doing provides an apparatus primarily developed for the purpose of protecting a cyclists eyes without need of glasses.
In view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the known types of eyeshields now present in the prior art, the present invention provides a new protective helmet with attachable visor construction wherein the same can be utilized for protecting a cyclists eyes without need of glasses.
The general purpose of the present invention, which will be described subsequently in greater detail, is to provide a new protective helmet with attachable visor apparatus and method which has many of the advantages of the eyeshields mentioned heretofore and many novel features that result in a new protective helmet with attachable visor which is not anticipated, rendered obvious, suggested, or even implied by any of the prior art eyeshields, either alone or in any combination thereof.
To attain this, the present invention generally comprises a helmet portion adapted for being worn on a head of a wearer. The helmet portion has a pair of vent holes through a front portion thereof. The helmet portion has a plurality of hook and loop strips secured to a front peripheral edge thereof. A protective visor is adapted for removable securement to the front peripheral edge of the helmet portion. The protective visor has a plurality of hook and loop strips disposed on an interior surface of an upper edge thereof. The hook and loop strips couple with the hook and loop strips of the helmet portion. The protective visor has a pair of angularly disposed air vents therethrough inwardly of opposing side edges thereof.
There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the invention in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are additional features of the invention that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.
